Health - Historical Notes

The following summaries are included herein for reference purposes.

  1. Private Acts of 1933, Chapter 303, provided that any person over twenty-one, who was of good character, had been continuously engaged in the practice of medicine, and was a bona fide resident of the state, was licensed to practice medicine in Hancock County by the provisions of this act, without meeting any other requirements.  This act was repealed by Private Acts of 1978, Chapter 204.
  2. Private Acts of 1933, Chapter 672, authorized Essco Mills to practice dentistry within Hancock County only, since there was a great need for a dentist in Hancock County but no licensed dentist practiced there, and Mr. Mills had two years of training at the Atlanta Dental College.
